Most of them will begin the 2025 campaign this week, and locally the long-anticipated return of native son Rob DiLoreto is just hours away. That’s enough to bring out the longtime diehard fan. As a result, Friday night’s home opener (Sept. 5, 6 p.m.) at Everett Memorial Stadium against Medford, the defending Greater Boston League (GBL) champs, should be off the charts in terms of attendance if the Facebook comments that have accompanied the football stories the last few weeks is any indication. After unceremoniously stepping down two years ago as the Crimson Tide head coach, something he continues to say is his dream job, DiLoreto is ready to resume his streak of playoff teams. His fi rst year as head coach was in 2020 – the COVID year – that was played in the spring of 2021 with no playoff s, but once everything returned to normal, his teams made the postseason the next two years in the new era of the power rankings. His Everett neighbors, friends and fans expect more of the same successes throughout FOOTBALL | SEE PAGE 11
